Very nice stay on the Irish Mist. The boat had plenty of space for 3 ladies celebrating a birthday. Patrick was very quick at responding to our questions and made the check in process quick and easy. The marina is very safe, clean and has wonderful amenities. I’m so glad we stayed here. Marina life is fun.

It was a beautiful boat with plenty of room for My daughter, granddaughter, and myself. The host was thoughtful. The marina had alot of things to do, shopping was near by. It was a little warm with not much relief in the bedrooms. We made it a slumber party and slept in the living room with the air-conditioning.

Spontaneous Weekend Getaway

Our stay was above and beyond our expectations. We would definitely recommend this for a fun and different from the norm getaway. The host Patrick was kind enough to stop by after we checked in and gave us recommendations on what was going on that weekend which was spot on and fun to do.

Never stayed in a boat before, it was different but good. Patrick was great with communication, only thing I would ask/change is for people from out of town to let them know the Boat Shop is on first floor of the Brew Pub

Never thought about staying on a boat…. Then, it was a good idea. Not an ordinary hotel, so it took a moment to get my bearings, but all of my questions had intuitive answers. Yes, I would do it again

Fun weekend getaway

Had a lovely time exploring Racine, and enjoying the accomodations on the Irish Mist V. The entire marina community was very welcoming, and you can't beat ending the day with a dip in the pool and hot tub.

Great way to celebrate my 60th

A stellar night and morning at Racine’s Reefpoint Marina aboard Irish Mist V was an excellent time! The boat has an awesome deck for 4, and pleasant sleeping accommodations. Close to parking and bathrooms. We took advantage of the marina pool and bathrooms and watched the full moon and fiery sun arise over Lake Michigan. Our trio of mature women hunkered in at about 11pm and enjoyed a movie to carry us into the next day. Patrick was wonderful and responsive. Take advantage of a unique VRBO experience in the beautiful city of Racine WI!

Girls’ Getaway

An incredibly relaxing stay on the Irish Mist. Equipped with everything we needed including A/C on a very hot and humid night. However there was always a breeze off the lake! Clean and comfy. Folks at the marina - staff and guests were very friendly. The boat was very stable during the storm with high winds and torrential rain. We hope to visit again!

Great location! The Irish Mist V is ideal for an adult couple, a little too cozy for two adult couples, in my opinion. Host was responsive and helpful, very patient with my inexperience with VRBO. I’d definitely recommend this property and I would use it again myself.

A Great Experience

Our time on the Irish Mist V was really fun and unique. The Reefpoint Marina is in the perfect location to enjoy Lake Michigan. The bathroom/shower facilities are spotless and there was live entertainment within walking distance from the boat, as well as a great restaurant. We would definitely recommend this rental if you’re looking for something out of the ordinary.

Best Romantic Getaway!

Patrick, the owner, was so informative about things to do in the area and met us at the boat to show us around the marina and how things work in the boat! It really made us feel more comfortable and it allowed us to settle in more quickly! The marina has so many things to do and it was such a unique stay for a romantic getaway!
